What is the importance of killing Arthropods?

Answer 1

Do you mean arthropods? If so, your question needs to be more specific. According to National Geographic, arthropods are the single most diverse group of animals. Among that group, you can find a variety from butterflies to tarantulas to horseshoe crabs to ticks to lobsters. So as far as what arthropods kill, you would have to narrow your focus.

Answer 2

It is socially unacceptable (and many people find it personally repulsive) to eat live arthropods. However, some arthropods are considered delicious, particularly the lobster. Hence, the killing of arthropods is important to make them fit to eat. It is recommended to cook lobsters before eating them, and the cooking process alone will kill the lobster.

Also, live arthropods tend to attempt to escape and must be contained, meaning that a table laden with decoratively stacked lobsters awaiting many hungry dinners will not stay neatly arranged unless the arthropods are killed before stacking. In general, if the lobster will be eaten soon, it is best to kill it.
